👍 Thank you. I am aware about not taking it.

I’m aware of the one near the dockyard. There is another one I’ve been to but can’t remember how to get there. It’s in the St Georges area if anyone can guide me.

What is the dress code for the main dining room? Not specialty or buffet. Can men wear shorts?

And you are probably aware, you can't go ALL the way into Denali because the road is closed. Not anticipated to be opened until 2026.

No, I’m not aware. Just started planning. Thanks for the heads up!

Yes, that’s what I’m asking. I knew I didn’t quite word it right.

Does the tour package take you all the way into Denali or are we better off doing it on our own before our cruise begins?

Are they allowed in Tortola? We’re looking for a way to get to JVD and thought that would be fun!

Wondering if it has one bed and what size is it?

I would also think you cannot but you could always go to "insuremytrip" and look at the different coverages.  The people on the phone are very helpful if you have any questions.  Hope your son is feeling better!

If you *just* booked it, it can take about 48 hours for the banner and message in the Message Center to show up.

Yes I "just" booked it.  Phew, didn't think I was going to be able to bid!  I bid last time and it was fun waiting to see what happened.  I did end up winning from a regular balcony to an SJ suite.  Thank you Jamie!

I just booked for a May cruise.  How do I get to bid?  The last time I had a banner on my home page, this time nothing.  I booked direct.

Just another FYI....  On the Oasis I accessed the DL (by myself) but was never asked to see my card.  I also asked for two drinks because I wanted to go back to my cabin and sit on the balcony.  The server said he wasn't supposed to do that, but this one time it was okay.  There is a sign on the door leaving the DL that says "drinks are not to leave this room".  Although when I walked by the concierge, she never said anything.  From then on I just used the 3 free drinks on my card, which I prefer.   I always tip the server and always wondered if everyone does.

If I book a guarantee, will I be able to bid?

Recently on Freedom and was never checked to be sure we were D.  It also was never crowded.  You did have to use you card to unlock the door which maybe wouldn’t unlock unless you were D.  I’d prefer unlimited drinks on my sea pass each evening as opposed to going to the lounge. 😜

Thanks everyone!

Someone mentioned on another thread that they were given the wrong card color for their status.  What color should the diamond card be?

Try toggling (log in and out between) the Royal Caribbean e-mail selection under the Offers&Communications in your RCI account Preferences.

Great, thanks!

I am on that cruise with you.  I also have not received that email...but have received one for each cruise before that.  I think it may be too early for our late February cruise to get one yet. 

Not many cabins left but it's always fun bidding!  I haven't received an email for our 1/20/19 cruise. I'm not worried about that one because we have a great balcony next to my sister and BIL.

Thank you both. I have a group of 21 cabins on Oasis in February and know that nobody in our group has received emails at this point.

I'm on Oasis 2/24/19 and haven't received an email, although it's just one cabin.  Can we call RC and ask for the email?  Seriously, I want to bid!!

If we have an accessible cabin, would we be put in an accessible cabin if our upgrade bid was accepted?  It is something we do need.  I will also call NCL.

Thanks!

We have an accessible balcony and just received the email.  I will call RC but I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with this?  Does the computer program know we need an accessible cabin.  We're afraid we won't be put in one if we win and definitely need it.  Thank you

I got the offer, or my 13yo DD did actually lol.  I'm always the one who plans all our vacations, so its always my email used for all of us.  I always opt in for marketing, because maybe some day I'll get lucky and be able to book one of those great priced last minute deals.  I'm also the vacation planner for work...we have an awesome boss who takes us all on a team building cruise every few years.  I use my email for that too.  And I NEVER get any emails addressed to me personally. I get them because I use my own address just for convenience sake.  It's almost like a bad joke.  

 

So, for our upcoming cruise on Anthem, December 29, we got the offer, and before I bothered to make a bid I checked availability and suite prices.  All the bidable categories were available, so I made a bid.  And now I wait.  Today I was curious and looked again, and found the ship no longer had any category other than OV, all balconies and suites said sold out.  I haven't heard either way on the success of my bid. 

I hope you get it!  What do you have now and what are you bidding on?  Just curious.

Breakaway 12/16/18 upgrade confirmed today. 

 

Booked family Mini-suite (M3) upgraded to Haven Spa Suite (H9).

Minimum bid was 500 per person.  I bid 600 per person.  Poor range. 

Do you happen to know the different it would have cost to upgrade on your own?  Just curious!  My upgrade bid won for about half of what I would have to pay outright to upgrade.  Enjoy!!

I would go on the first week in June as it's the least possible time for a hurricane. (plus it's cheaper)  Getting in touch with a wedding planner in Bermuda would be your best bet so you get first-hand answers.  Good luck and I hope your sister finds what she is looking for!  I think it will be doable.

Someone recently reported around $15/day.

Thank you!  I'll keep my eye on it.
